"Huh? Do you sell that knitting for that high a price, old man?
"Of course not. That's all those nice, warm clothes. Don't even sell your clothes high enough to admit Master Lilina. What are you going to do, kid?"
"But I was wondering if that sweater or something would be for ordinary people"
"Let's be silly. Even this Barca Knight is short of money. If you have a product to sell, what if you don't sell it for the right price?"
"Well, yes..."
"Besides, think about it, kid. Doesn't matter how many boys set a lower amount, does it?
"What do you mean, old man?
"I mean, no matter how cheap you price it, Barca now has a limited number of goats. In other words, the amount of yarn available is determined to be a small amount. You know what this is?
"Of course."
"That means. The guys who bought the clothes the kid sold cheaply will sell them to the others high. It means you can sell it even if it's expensive. I mean, just because you made it cheaper doesn't mean the clothes will fit in the hands of the poor."
"... you know what? So you're saying it's better to sell at the right price from the start?"
"Right. I've never sold it high if I could. Which means it's smarter to think about selling it to nobles and knights."
"It's not for nobles. Then the colour of the yarn can't be white. Do you want to dye some colors and add value?"
"Right. Beautiful white yarn so it would stain easily in all other colors. If you're selling as a nobleman, you'd better let the Graham family see it too, kid."
"Right. Talk to Lilina or Clarice."
That means should I dedicate the finished knitting to Carlos once and for all?
It is the added value of the Fontana family that is likely to work best.
That's going to make it less and less for ordinary people, but I can't help it.
Well, it would make sense in terms of creating new jobs.
That's why I started experimenting with dyeing yarn in various colors.
"Wow, Lilina. You have a professional knitting style."
"Thank you, Master Ars. I'm so enthusiastic about sticking around... Knitting is fun."
"I don't like complications like that. You don't knit that complicated."
Yarn dyed in several colors.
Among other things, it was decided to choose and produce some of the colors recognized by Lilina, Clarice and others.
but all the yarns made during that prototyping phase were to be presented to Lilina.
Apparently Lilina, who originally had a hobby in reading, was also interested in sewing etc.
I got hooked on knitting brought in like that in one shot.
That would have been nice, but I used the yarn on hand to knit one after the other.
Now he's knitting me an argyle check sweater.
This world-born lilina has a way of knitting that seems to have originated around Scotland with plaid lines on the pattern of the hips.
Apparently, I said, "I've heard of this kind of knitting. I don't know how to knit," he just said, reproducing himself.
He was completing something like a combination of several other colors.
Shall I ask you later how to knit and manualize it so others can do it?
"But are you glad you used so much yarn, Master Ars?
"Oh, no problem. Goat hair grew faster than I thought. It's going to be all right."
"That's right. But you might want to sort this yarn a little, Master Ars."
"Sorting? What do you mean, Lilina?
"Yes. I don't know for sure because it only feels like I've tried it, but I feel like there's some unevenness in the yarn formation. Do you feel that some yarns are sarcastic and smooth, while others are not so"
"You mean there's a difference in the quality of the yarn? Is it the only thing that makes a difference, even though it's only the goats that take the hair?
"Come on, what do you think? Perhaps soft grapevine hair and stretched cassava hair make a difference when you yarn it, Dear Ars"
"I see. That's funny. Shall I look into it once?"
Following an opinion from Lilina, I decided to do more research on goat hair.
As a result, I found it interesting.
Thanks. They also make a difference in the hair that grows from the goat's body depending on where it grows.
There are soft and delicate hairs growing in certain areas, otherwise they are not, and some places seem to be ragged.
So I gathered only soft and delicate hair to try and yarn it and knit it it.
The result is a terribly fine sweater.
However, the amount of fine hair that can be removed from a single goat is small.
For this reason, it was decided that the sweater, which gathered its fine hair, would be positioned even higher than normal yarn.
He seemed to really like this sweater when he gave it to Carlos, so much so that he came all the way directly to Vulcania and thanked me and Lilina.
Thus, the goat-haired sweater that could be taken from Barca was officially recognized as a Fontana family servant and was to be sold.
